Spec. MD. Abdulbaki Agackiran

My 8-year-old daughter's chronic abdominal pain was dismissed as 'stress' for months. Dr. Agackiran noticed an atypical vascular pattern on her routine ultrasound and insisted on a contrast-enhanced MRI. He discovered a rare mesenteric arteriovenous malformation that was intermittently causing ischemia. His precise imaging guided the interventional radiologist's embolization. She hasn't had pain in six months.

During a mountaineering expedition in the Kaçkar Mountains, I suffered a high-altitude cerebral edema. Evacuated to Medical Park Göztepe, Dr. Agackiran was called in at 2 AM. Using portable ultrasound with specialized transcranial Doppler settings he adapted on the spot, he monitored my cerebral perfusion in real-time, guiding the ICU's pressure management in a way that prevented permanent damage. His improvisation saved my cognitive function.

We brought our 92-year-old grandmother from Germany with what seemed like dementia progression. Dr. Agackiran, suspecting something else, performed a low-dose perfusion CT of the brain. He identified not one, but three tiny chronic subdural hematomas from a fall she'd forgotten. His delicate drainage guidance under imaging allowed treatment without general anesthesia. Her personality returned within days.

As a professional violinist, a tremor in my bowing hand threatened my career. Neurologists found nothing. Dr. Agackiran designed a unique functional MRI protocol where I 'air-played' my violin in the scanner. The imaging revealed abnormal firing in a specific cerebellar circuit correlated with my precise motor sequence. This map allowed targeted focused ultrasound treatment. I performed at the İş Sanat Hall last month.

As a competitive freediver, I developed persistent sinus barotrauma that baffled ENT specialists. Dr. Agackiran performed a specialized dynamic CT scan during simulated pressure changes, revealing a tiny, previously undetectable ethmoid bone defect that only manifested under pressure. His three-dimensional reconstruction allowed my surgeon to plan a minimally invasive repair. I'm now back to diving 40 meters without pain.
